« Marie Madeleine » as an allegory of duality of humanity…this is the proposal of French acid electro pop act Marie Madeleine.

Amongst the 3 original tracks of their third EP « No Apologies », on which the charming voice of Clara from the band La Femme can be heard, we particularly fancy « Love Suicide » and its bouncy bassline.Enjoy!

*** EP « No Apologies » released last month on Elektro Shock and available for download on iTunes*** Interviews of the band in Les Inrocks or Modzik*** A remix that turns the track into something completely different by Acid Arab

A Thibaut may hide another one. After Thibaut Berland aka Breakbot a little while ago, Pedro Winter (cool interview in French here) has found a new rookie to his famous label Ed Banger with Thibaut Noyer aka Boston Bun.

The guy has already drawn some attention on his work with remixes for Myd (Club Cheval) or The Aikiu; but Housecall is his first EP. And the eponymous track is still, even 3 months after its release (edit : yeah, not an exclusivity and yet it’s very good!), on our minds.

You may watch the very 80s / surreal video above, or directly download as MP3 the 3-track EP via iTunes. Enjoy!

The Frenchiest British producers David Shaw has been quite the buzz for a couple of months under his real name, after several years of music aka Siskid.

New moniker and new project, with a less electro and more pop rock / new wave universe.
His album « So It Goes » , released late October, follows the EP « Infected » and « The Jackal » on the artist’s own label, Her Majesty’s Ship.

We have chosen to share with you the groovy « Trance in Mexico » , which you may have already spotted in sets from DJs like Get A Room among others.

You may download the single or the whole album as MP3 on iTunes, or as a CD at Parisian trendy shop Colette. Enjoy!

More than one year after the realease of « Nuit de rêve » (see review here for instance), their third album in 10 years, Maud Geffray and Sébastien Chenut aka Scratch Massive delivered last month their new EP, « Paris » , out of which we picked up the huge remix by Parisian outfit Darabi

« Paris » is full of featurings as on the audio side, you may recognize the voice of Icelandic act GusGus’ leader, Daniel Agust; and on the video side (see above), French actress Cécile Cassel directed by Zoé Cassavetes, who has already directed a couple of videos for the French duo.

Evidence of this with the buzz surrounding the new electropop duo Saint Michel. With the star producer (what’s more, local) Alex Gopher behind the decks, they will release their 2nd EP « Katherine » at the end of the month, and are currently working on their debut album.

If their music may sound like Air or MGMT, we focused here on a more punchy remixed version, with a treatment by another French house music giant, Lifelike.

Before you can grab their forthcoming EP, you may download their first EP « I love Japan » on the iTunes Store or for free and legally here. Enjoy!

Brand new from this morning, here is the latest track by French producer / director Quentin Dupieux aka Mr Oizo.
« Ronnie », produced with Tahiti Boy, is the first track taken from the O.S.T. of the forthcoming movie by Quentin Dupieux, Wrong. This jam, in a very Oizo-ish style, will be out soon on the label Ed Banger.
